Implementations of the disclosed subject matter provide a method of connecting, via a communications interface of an autonomous mobile device, to both a first communication network and a second communication network. A third communication network may be connected to when the communications interface is disconnected. A map may be stored that includes a first one or more locations of the autonomous mobile device where the plurality of communications networks are accessible, and includes a second one or more locations of the autonomous mobile device where one or more of the plurality of communications networks have been disconnected. At a different time, when the autonomous mobile device is within a predetermined distance of one of the locations that the communications networks have been disconnected, the third communications network or another one of the plurality of communications networks may be switched to based on the map.
